Nintendo Unveils Switch 2 Partner Showcase Slated for July 31, 2025
Nintendo has officially announced a Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase scheduled for July 31, 2025, at 6:00 AM PT. This marks the company’s first major presentation focusing on both Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 games from third-party publishers. The 25-minute showcase will feature upcoming games from publishing partners across both platforms, providing much-needed visibility for the Switch 2’s expanding game library.
The announcement comes after weeks of speculation and rumors about a July Nintendo Direct. Industry insiders correctly predicted the timing despite doubts as the month neared its end. Unlike traditional Nintendo Directs that focus on first-party titles, this Partner Showcase will highlight third-party games. This could potentially include highly anticipated ports and new announcements from major publishers.
Gaming enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting announcements for titles like:
- Persona 3 Reload
- Metaphor ReFantazio
- Elden Ring
And other major games coming to Nintendo’s platforms. The showcase represents Nintendo’s strategy to build momentum for the Switch 2 through strong third-party support while its own first-party lineup continues development.
